Shine Conference 2027 Hunger

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” — Matthew 5:6

We all know what it is to be hungry for something more. To know that what we have experienced of God is good, but still want to know Him more deeply.

Jesus tells us that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be filled.

That’s what we want Shine 2027 to be about — Hunger.

For 24 hours, we are setting aside the distractions and making space to seek God together. We’ll worship, open His Word, pray, make room for the Holy Spirit and simply spend time in His presence.

We don’t want to come just because we love a great conference. We don’t want to come looking for another moment or experience. We want to come because we are hungry for Jesus.

Psalm 42 says: As the deer pants for water, so I long for you, O God.  I thirst for God, the living God. Where can I find him to come and stand before him?

This is not a cute Bambi image lapping at a stream but a desperation to encounter God. 

Our prayer is that we would arrive expectant and open, ready for whatever God wants to do in us.

Come hungry.

Jesus promises that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be filled.
